Hi readers.. Just wanted to share few snapshots from my camera i took last week.
I took these pictures when there was power black out at our house.
I just used an ordinary flashlight for lighting.
"Spotlight"
"lucky"
"the King and Queen of the night with two Horsemen"
"Cold War"
You all know that I have dry and dark lips, that is why I am in search for a good lip tint. I realized that using a lip tint saves more time since touch ups are rarely needed because it lasts longer than lipsticks and colored glosses. I have used Allue's lip tint which only costs 60 pesos but this tastes like soap (literally) and I have also used cheek tints like Nichido and Ever Bilena (the one in the pump bottle) on my lips but they all taste pungent and weird. ON my first visit to Etude House, I noticed this tint on their shelves.
Dear Darling Tint
wt: 5 grams
Description:
Jelly texture adheres to lips without fading (No lip strain)
Natural, vivid lips
Long lasting lip moisture supplement
Price: 198 pesos
Available in 3 Shades:
No. 1 in Berry Red
No. 2 in Real Red
No. 3 in Orange Red
(picture from Etude House Site)
I got mine in No. 2 and I am really loving this product a lot.
Why?
- This gives my lips a natural hint of color to my lips. This color is buildable.
- Very affordable
- The consistency is just right not too runny or thick.
- It does not wear off easily. It stayed on my lips for hours even though I have already eaten.
- Touch ups are rarely needed but you need to moisturize your lips to prevent it from flaking and drying
- It has a nice strawberry scent
- The best part is -- NO bitter or funky taste. :D It is just your lips-but-better look.
I do not have any complains about this product. I will definitely repurchase!
^^ it is in liquid jelly form. Do not worry about spilling it ^^
the doe foot applicator is pointed for precise application but i would love it better if it came in bended form
very pigmented and long lasting
on my lips without any lipbalm or lipliner
See how it covered my dark lips very well?

I never thought that I will get my hands on this product when my bestfriend came home. When it comes to liquid eyeliner, I am in love and overtly satisfied with nichido liquid eyeliner. Nichido liquid eyeliner costs only 60 pesos and available at local department stores in the Philippines. When I got this, I got bewildered with the brush tip.It was not tapered or pointed at all. It was a thin brush which looks uneasy for application. To my surprise, the long handled brush made the application easier. It was like putting mascara on. However, this would not be of help to those with unsteady hands.Moreover, one of Michelle Phan's video showed that she used this on her lower lashes. I tried it and it worked wonderfully. I was searching for pictures of this liner online and I got confused with the pictures. Some showed a shorter wand than mine. Finally, I figured that there is another kind of lineur intense liner which is the felt tip one. I was a bit disappointed because this is the one I really wanted because it looks easier to use. And the brush tip one is the unpopular version of this liner but with the color pay off, I will not complain.The brush may not look pointed at all but with practice I managed to create thin lines with it.

What I love about Lineur Intense Brush Tip Liner:
- The color Carbon Black is really intense and bold
- It does not smudge
- The color does not wear off at the end of the day unlike other liquid liners I have tried
- Easy to use for creating that winged liner look
- It does not sting my lids when used
- I can used this on my lower lashes as a mascara
What I do not like about it:
- Not available locally
- When you double the application, it flakes off
Swatch:^^ With flash
^^ Without flash
The color pay off is amazing. Isn't it?
^^no concealer or powder..
Initially, I said that I can not create thin lines with it.. What I meant was... My first try with this liner creating thin lines was not that easy .. Sorry for the confusion. In the long run, I fell in love with the brush and how long the wand was because I can easily maneuver creating that winged effect. ^this is how thin the lines can go..
Cheers everyone.. :D
Godbless
